Play me or I’ll leave, Agger tells Liverpool
Liverpool’s prospects of losing Daniel Agger for a cut-price fee this summer have increased after the defender said he will not sign a new contract unless his first-team chances improve under Rafael Bentez.
The Denmark international is entitled to buy out the final 12 Black Prada Eyeglass Case months Biggest Prada Outlet In Italy of his Anfield deal at the end of this season for around 2m. Agger’s failure to sign a contract extension has previously been blamed Bicester Village Prada Discount on a lack of communication with the Liverpool hierarchy, a charge levelled by Bentez himself, along with the player’s financial demands.
Now the 24-year-old admits limited appearances this season are also a factor in his reluctance to commit his future Ap Lei Chau Prada Factory Outlet to the club, and that he is likely to seek pastures new should Bentez Authentic Prada Handbags Outlet Uk persist with his favoured central defensive pairing of Jamie Carragher and Martin Skrtel. „Let me be honest and admit that, if I don’t play, then it’s untenable and it can’t go on like that,“ said the Dane.

The 5.8m signing from Brondby was Authentic Prada Shoes For Sale restricted to two starts in 12 matches before the City game as he returned from a metatarsal injury, and has started only once C at Portsmouth on Saturday C since Skrtel reclaimed his place against Stoke City on 10 January.

That’s not my decision. The question now is whether this is the right thing for me, because I would like to play some football. But for now Amancio Prada Prada I have chosen to give it some time and give it a chance and fight for my spot in the team. I feel I’m good enough.

For me it is OK to wait and see how things evolve in the summer.I believe that I am in a good position for negotiations and I wish for more time in the red jersey.“Jos Reina, the Liverpool goalkeeper outlet, has admitted Agatha Ruiz Dela Prada Bentez’s team cannot afford many more slip-ups if they are to sustain their challenge to Manchester United for the Premier League title. The Anfield club have kept their championship prospects alive with late victories over Chelsea and Portsmouth in their last two league outings, but the Spaniard believes there must be improvement on the home form that has produced five draws in 12 games this season.
„Every match is like a final now,“ said Reina. „We know we can’t afford to drop many points, especially at home. There are big games coming every week and we have to be ready for them.

The season is nine months long so it’s natural that at some stage you will not be at your best. Hopefully we have come through our worst moment and the next few months are going to be better.“
